The system last season didn’t allow for these types to be the best version of themselves.

The dogshit that samoht regurgitates adnauseum is not only lazy and predictable - it's incorrect.
The popular horsesh1t being peddled on here - reducing everything down so as to blame the coach at every turn - is what's lazy and predictable.
Two wrongs don't make a right.

Re: JLT1 Match Thread - Saints v Kangas

I don't understand. We have 8 on the interchange and yet no second ruck???????????????? Pierce looks like he has been concussed (should have been a free - no mention on the commentary) and we have Bruce as second ruck again FFS!!!!!! You realise it's a praccy match right? Exactly.

Re: St Kilda F.C as pure as the driven snow?

When you have a guy with known injury concerns over the last 2 years and you combine that with the rumours then I think some fans have every right to question the decision making process. The fact that a player cannot perform and cannot get out on the park is the reason that some Saints supporters ...

Re: Dire predictions for Saints in 2019

They just aren’t a very good football club and maybe there’s a reason why they’ve won just one premiership in 121 years, back in 1966. Ouch. That's hard to read. Not sure how I feel about that comment. I guess it's true but bloody hell it starting to smack of getting personal rather than objective ...

Re: St Kilda F.C as pure as the driven snow?

I honestly don't see any relevance to anything. We all knows drug use is 'rife' across the comp, and we know for a fact that Brownlow Medallists and premiership players are into the gear. So who gives a f***? Yeah good call. Maybe next year the AFL can replace the JLT with the LSD Community Series....

Re: Barret on Hannebery

Conclusion. Barret is a flog and made s*** up on this one. Thanks Johnny Longmire and Simon Lethlean. I don't think journalists just make s*** up. Barrett's problem, and it's what makes him so woeful as a journalist, is that he's not actually saying anything. He's making insinuations. He's not repo...

I find that much more likely than Barrett randomly making up a story about a small, bottom club and a passed his prime, sort of known player. What is the story though? You seem to be defending a 'story' when there isn't even a story to defend. What is Barrett actually saying? You defend Barrett, be...

Re: Barret on Hannebery

I would say he has more credibility and inside knowledge about the AFL than anyone on here. It also seems to coincide with other things that have been said. Not with me and I suspect the bulk of the football loving public. A stain on the game imho. Even Richo called bulls*** on the flog's statement...

Re: Drug use Rife at the Saints in '06 - Grant Thomas

Kind of funny story. I remember talking to Butterss at Docklands after a Saints game one day (the year he came in) and I accidently spilt my beer over his leg and shoe when I shook his hand. I had one of those moments where this high flying intelligent super serious businessman thought I was probab...

Re: Drug use Rife at the Saints in '06 - Grant Thomas

Grant only drew the moral high ground on Butterss behavior when the fell out over money. Prior to that he either turned a blind eye or didn’t care. I thought the relationship soured when Butterss ditched his missus. I thought the Thomas' were very close with Mrs Butterss, and felt that Rod chose th...

So if you think he has strengths what are they? I have no idea if he has strengths nor what they are. And no one, no current or ex-players, the club, supporters can tell me what his elite skills are.

I'm defending the club, not Alan, with all things considered I thought it was the right thing to do by letting Alan go around again in 2019. Blind Freddy could see there were other issues at play for our poor results in 2018 and sacking Alan just would have put the club into a nose dive and papered...
